The 2023-2024 school year ends with five males snatching track-and-field title events from females in Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maine, Oregon, and Washington.
Those who defend the insanity will say five is not a lot, but one is one too many. These titles belong to females.
The males followed the rules since the states allowed them to compete in female categories. From The Washington Times:
Lizzy Bidwell, a junior at Connecticut’s Conard High School, who won the triple jump with a leap of 36 feet, 8 inches, which was 14 inches longer than the runner-up at the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference Class LL Girls Championships in New Britain. Bidwell was also the runner-up in the long jump and high jump, amassing points that helped Conard take second place at the May 29 championship meet.
Maelle Jacques, a sophomore at New Hampshire’s Kearsarge Regional High School, who won the girls’ high jump May 18 at the Wilderness Track and Field Championship and also placed second in the 1600-meter run.
Soren Stark-Chessa, a sophomore at Maine Coast Waldorf School who competes for North Yarmouth Academy, took first in the 800-meter race June 1 at the Maine Class C State Championship in Standish with a time of 2.19.72. That finish was a full 10 seconds faster than that of the silver medalist, Natalie Johnson, who timed in at 2:29.84.
Aayden Gallagher, a sophomore at Oregon’s McDaniel High School, who took first in the girls’ 200-meter dash May 18 at the Oregon School Activities Association 6A Track and Field State Championships in Eugene. Gallagher also took second in the 400-meter run.
Veronica Garcia, a junior at Washington’s East Valley High School, who took gold in the girls’ 2A 400-meter run May 25 at the Washington Interscholastic Athletic Association’s 2A, 3A, 4A State Championship Meet in Tacoma. Garcia, who won the 400 at all seven meets ahead of the state championships, was also a top competitor this year in the 1600-meter, 3200-meter, 300-meter hurdles, and 4X400 relay, as shown on Athletic.net. Asked about the state victory, Garcia told a local reporter: “I don’t know. Maybe just another day in the office. Nothing special for me. I just run.”
SheWon.org archives the times males took anything from females in sports. It is not just about first place. It is about everything. Second. Third. A girl not placing fourth could miss the cut in future events.
Thank goodness judges have issued preliminary injunctions against Biden’s rewrite of Title IX in ten states: Idaho, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.
U.S. District Court’s Eastern District of Kentucky, Northern Division Chief Judge Danny Reeves’ decision is long, but he could have stopped with his first sentence:
There are two sexes: male and female.
I will die on this hill.
